  • The engineering technology student will be presented with engineering-oriented problems to solve using programming concepts. The students will learn the logical sequence of steps to obtain their solutions to the various technical problems. The problems will be applied to static dynamics, numerical methods, thermodynamics, and fluid applications.
  • A student may contract for one to four credit hours of independent study through an arrangement with an instructor who agrees to direct such a study. The student will submit a plan acceptable to the instructor and to the department chair. The instructor and student will confer regularly regarding the process of the study.
  • First of two-semester sequence Bachelor of Science seniors. Students design technical project for completion in BSET 8003. Project proposal and design oral reports are presented. Weekly seminar deals with various aspects of post graduation professional employment.
  • Students build and test a technical project designed in BSET 7001. Each student must do library research, a formal oral presentation, project demonstration and submit a written project report.
